“Sinful attempts to control may come from a lust for power or from unsuccessful attempts to correct problem situations. Underneath sinful attempts to control or manipulate is the deadliest sin of all: pride. It is pride that puts self, self's interests, desires, plans, and ideas first. It is often the self-righteous pride of thinking that self knows what is best.”

“When man no longer regards himself as karmic he ceases to be so. That’s the end of karma right there – when people stop believing in it, stop taking the idea seriously, stop treating it as real. Hinduism and Buddhism are total nonsense because they are predicated on karma, which is an illusion! They themselves say so!”

“Children of sin are we all. But to me it often seems as though a contradiction were in the world between sinfulness and high courage, between the wretchedness of the flesh and its pride. If it be corrupt, how then can it gaze free and bold and brace itself to such a noble gait that it fills with pride even the beholder? The spirit is ware of our unworth, yet unconcerned with its knowledge Nature considers herself worthy.”
